Juvenile Justice Coordinating Council (JJCC)

Welfare and Institution Code 749.22 requires each county to establish a juvenile justice coordinating council (JJCC) that shall develop and implement a continuum of county-based responses to juvenile crime. The JJCC is responsible for developing the county’s Multi-Agency Local Action Plan to serve Juvenile-Justice Involved Youth. The coordinating council shall, at a minimum, include the Chief Probation Officer, as chair, and one representative each from:

  • The District Attorney’s office
  • The Public Defender’s office
  • The Sheriff’s Department
  • The Board of Supervisors
  • The Department of Social Services
  • The Department of Mental Health
  • A Community-Based Agency drug and alcohol program
  • The Police Department
  • The County Office of Education or School district
  • An at-large community representative

San Francisco’s JJCC includes the above required representation as well as representatives from the Recreation & Parks Department, Department of Children, Youth, & Their Families, Adult Probation, Mayor’s Office of Housing, the Board of Supervisors, SF’s Youth Commission, and the Juvenile Advisory Council.

Juvenile Justice Coordinating Council (JJCC) SB 823 Subcommittee

The JJCC’s SB 823 Subcommittee has been established under Senate Bill 823, which began the closure of the state’s Division of Juvenile Justice (DJJ), California’s youth prison system. SB 823 will realign state functions previously administered by DJJ to county governments. Members of the subcommittee will assist in the development of a comprehensive long-term realignment plan to serve youth at a local level, including the identification of facilities, programming, service needs, and the allocation of grant funding.
